He made an error. Simple as that. He misread a navigation chart and set their boat on the wrong course. It cost him his life.

Course Corrections is an unflinching memoir recalling the haunting death of the author's husband of twenty-four years, and her unmarked path through grief toward recovery. She refuses the safe, subdued existence in which her entire life would forever be gauged by a single standard: before-or after-his death. Rather, she embarks on a solitary odyssey, willing to risk even greater loneliness, reaching toward the future in search of a new beginning.
